Chapter 372: Bao Qingtian
It is rumored that there is a Bao Qingtian in Kaifeng, the sun is broken, and the night is broken.
In fact, Bao Zheng did not serve for a long time in Kaifeng Mansion Yin, but only did two things, the first thing was that the population of the capital was more at that time, and many magnates occupied the four canals in the capital in order to expand their mansions, which led to the arrival of the summer and autumn flood season, the water could not be discharged, and there were many waterloggings in the city, so Bao Zheng took the officials to do a forced demolition team. The second thing is to remove the wall outside the Kaifeng Yamen and try the case openly to show justice.
Maybe not afraid of the powerful.
But it doesn't mean that he is the best person in the Song Dynasty to try cases.
If you really compare with the legendary Bao Qingtian in later generations, there are two people at this time.
One is Zhao Kuangyi!
He has been in Kaifeng Mansion for many years and has accumulated a lot of experience in judging cases, so after becoming the emperor, he continued to decide many cases, and he did it very fairly, and also favored the disadvantaged groups, not Qi people, Qi people are equal, but in the hands of Zhao Kuangyi, if there is a conflict between the powerful and the poor, then it must be biased towards the poor.
There is one more person, Xiao Yanyan!
Yan Yan is the word, the name is Xiao Xuan, his father Xiao Siwen is a close confidant of Liao Muzong, when Liao Muzong was assassinated, Xiao Siwen made a big political speculation, while blocking the news, while informing Yeluxian overnight, Yeluxian went to Montenegro with a thousand iron armor, so he was able to become the emperor. In order to thank Xiao Siwen, he recruited his daughter Xiao Sui into the palace, Xiao Sui was only fifteen or sixteen years old at this time, and was soon given the title of concubine, and became the queen after only five months.
However, this famous Ming monarch in the history of the Liao State was very weak and couldn't even ride in the saddle, so Xiao Sui gradually handled some militaristic affairs for Ye Luxian. But the following year, her father was also assassinated. However, her father's death not only did not frighten Xiao Yanyan, but she realized the cruelty of the political struggle. Politically maturing rapidly. Therefore, Ye Luxian is more dependent on Xiao Yanyan.
This part of her history is quite familiar, not bad. It is very similar to Wu Zetian's upper position.
But ask yourself, aside from the fact that Wu Zetian is the only female emperor of the Han people, compared with Xiao Yanyan, it is too far behind.
As for why she believes in Han Derang, it is indeed not easy to say, Xiao Siwen has been serving as the important task of staying in Nanjing before becoming a confidant of Liao Muzong, and the Han family's status in Youzhou, Nanjing, Khitan is very important, and the two families will inevitably interact with each other. The two have known each other since they were young. As for whether there will be a childhood sweetheart-like love affair, only the two of them know it in their hearts.
The friendship between the two families, the acquaintance from a young age, Han Derang's outstanding performance in the defense of Youzhou, and his talent, this is the reason why Xiao Yanyan reuses Han Derang.
Because of his appreciation of Xiao Xuan's talents, a few years ago, Liao Jingzong had sent a message to the bachelor of the History Museum, and since then, he has recorded the words of the queen, "also known as 'Lian' and 'Yu'". And "written as a formula".
It was this order that made Xiao Yanyan take charge of the world after the death of Liao Jingzong, and there was great righteousness.
Liao Jingzong died. Xiao Yanyan blocked the news on the one hand, especially worried about the Song Dynasty.
On the one hand, he boldly reformed and reused Han Derang. The law stipulates that all nationalities are equal and everyone is equal, and Zhao Pu shouted out the Qi people. has not shouted out the Qi tribe yet, and Song Jiu has not shouted any slogan. However, some Qi policies are being promoted. However, Song Jiu's ideology came from more than a thousand years later, and the comparison between the two shows Xiao Yanyan's political foresight.
In the actual execution process, she also strictly enforced the prince's violation of the law, the same crime as the common people, once beheaded the nobles who killed the fugitive slaves, and formulated an appeal system, sent special personnel to inspect various places, cleaned up old unjust cases, cleared up grievances, and abolished the law of joint sitting, even if it is a rebellion, unsuspecting family members will be exempted from punishment. At the same time, there are also some humane measures, such as abolishing the practice of three days of violent corpses, implementing the imperial examination system, and selecting talents on an equal footing. For a period of time, Nanjing and Yi were imprisoned.
This is the real Bao Qingtian.
Think about the so-called non-punishment of non-commissioned doctors in the Song Dynasty later, compared with Zhao Kuangyi and Xiao Yanyan, Yan Shu, Han Qi, Ouyang Xiu and others went home to wash and sleep.
However, compared with Xiao Yanyan, Zhao Kuangyi has more of a show taste.
Some people say that the Song Dynasty was weak and Zhao Kuangyi was incompetent.
may have made two northern expeditions, because Zhao Kuangyi and Cao Bin ruined the opportunity for the Song Dynasty to rise.
However, it cannot be said that the Song Dynasty army was incompetent, and if the two northern expeditions failed aside, what would be the result of the war between the two countries on the border?
Could it be that the Song Dynasty had a lot of troops?
The Song Dynasty had only about 300,000 forbidden troops, and the number of troops that the Liao State could mobilize was close to this number. The Song Dynasty could recruit people and archers, and everyone in the Liao State was a soldier, and there were more troops that could be recruited.
In terms of numbers, the Song Dynasty did not have an advantage.
But look at the type of army, more than ninety percent of the Song Dynasty were infantry, and the Liao State was just the opposite, if it was a normal situation, it could be said that one cavalry could block five infantry, and the result was, so the combat effectiveness of the Song army exceeded Song Jiu's imagination.
It's a pity that Zhao Kuangyi was very sad, and he met Xiao Yanyan, Han Derang, Yelu Huge, Yelu Xianzhen, and Li Jiqian.
But Xiao Yanyan is also making mistakes.
The proportion of cavalry in the Song Dynasty was not large, but it had a huge effect, and it took a long time for Song Jiu to see this. Xiao Yanyan saw it very early, the year before last, she forced Fufeng Erzhou not to sacrifice horses to the Song Dynasty, and also sent troops to Fengzhou to capture some people to intimidate, and even the three-way army went south, all the way to the army to refer to Fuzhou, once it did not work, and once it was a small setback.
This time Xiao Yanyan is making mistakes again, she doesn't dare to attack the Song Dynasty anymore, Liaodong is cold, and it can only be solved next year.
So he sent troops to Toyoshu.
The reason for this is that one is that Fengzhou produces horses, and the other is that the father of Wang Chengmei, the leader of Fengzhou, once surrendered to the Khitan, and in the second year of Kaibao, he saw that the Song Dynasty was strong, so he abandoned Liao and surrendered to the Song Dynasty.
This time it was a serious mistake, there was Wang Chengmei in Fengzhou, and there was an equally awesome woman, who was broken in two......
……
The Song Dynasty sent two officials to Xiazhou.
The first is Yin Xian, who is an old minister of Zhao Kuangyi's domain, but this person is also very capable. Zhao Kuangyi ascended the throne and attached great importance to the northwest, so that Yin Xian was the security envoy of Yanzhou. During the invasion of the Northern Han Dynasty, the Tuoba Li family sent troops, but it was for show. Fuzhou Fold the family to send troops is the real army, because Yin Xian stayed in the northwest for a while, so he asked him to protect Fuzhou and attack Lanzhou with the three clans of Yanzhou, breaking more than 1,000 enemies. Ma Yanzhong, the governor of Lanzhou, dialed the edge of the river. Zhao Kuangyi attacked Youzhou. In order to respond to Zhao Kuangyi, he entered the Shuozhou border alone. Broke the Ningwu army, killed its military envoys, and obtained countless people, horses, weapons and armor. He also changed the Xia Zhou soldiers, killed and poked the Ugly Nuzhuang and the Fourteen Clans of Qijia Luo, and lured them to be handsome.
He is familiar with the northwest, has outstanding military achievements, and also has a deterrent effect.
Undoubtedly, the best candidate for Zhixia Prefecture.
At the same time, a general was sent to garrison, Cao Guangshi, the general of Yazhou, Sichuan, who presented a map to Wang Quanbin to take revenge.
This person should not be underestimated.
After the pacification of Bashu. Cao Guangshi went to Beijing to take up his post, saying that the territory was initially decided, and asked that the originally assembled township army be sent home for farming. Zhao Kuangyin admired it very much, and asked him about his achievements, praising him as a handsome man in Shu.
After Cao Guangshi went back, he traded horses with the tea produced in his hometown Baizhang and the people in the west. There must be soft and hard, it is this tea and horse trade, coupled with the military power of the Song Dynasty, that the surrounding Tibetan tribes have come to attach. The imperial court did not seem to have benefited. However, it is better to attach it than not to attach it, at least if it is attached, it will not come to invade and loot.
Zhao Kuangyi leveled Hedong, and Cao Guangshi asked to lead a brigade to climb first. Zhao Kuangyi said, capital and food are heavy. It is also enough to publicize the force, so that he can continue to cooperate with Song Jiuguan's logistics work. Hedongping. Ordered to be the inspection envoy of the four prefectures of Fenliao and Shiqin. In the victory of Yanmen, Cao Guangshi also made great contributions.
So this time, Zhao Kuangyi asked Cao Guangshi to be the inspection envoy of the seven states of Fengyou in Yinxia Suilin Mansion, and settled in Xiazhou with Yin Xian.
This person is a general with both civil and military skills, and he is very good at ethnic affairs.
It can be said that Zhao Kuangyi has absolutely not made any mistakes in this employment.
With this position, if there is a change in Xiazhou and the troops are insufficient, then Cao Guangshi can transfer troops from the seven states to suppress the rebellion with the momentum of Mount Tai.
And these two people are not evil to Song Jiu.
The first is Yoon Heon.
Speaking of Yin Xian, it is said that Song Jiu's contribution to Zhao Kuangyi. At that time, it was Zhao Kuangyi who supported Song Jiu and obtained a lot of wealth, which was an important help to Zhao Kuangyi. But no one paid attention to it, this was a fluke return on Zhao Kuangyi's investment. If it is not given to Zhao Kuangyi, it will also be distributed to others, what credit can Song Jiu have?
However, in fact, Yuping secretly took out money several times to support Zhao Kuangyi. This light and darkness enabled Zhao Kuangyi to get through the most difficult time.
Moreover, in Zhuozhou City, Song Jiu stabilized the generals, and did not make everyone support Zhao Dezhao to the throne. What's more, Yang Ye was sent to rescue Zhao Kuangyi.
But if Song Jiu sells this skill, Zhao Kuangyi will definitely not be happy. For example, Kou Zhun, under the city of Lanzhou, Kou Zhun has made great contributions.
However, his self-respecting character, he went back to the capital to sell this credit every day, what did Song Zhenzong think?
In fact, on the eve of the Battle of Lanzhou, Song Zhenzong was also the main battle faction! When Zhenkou dared to kidnap Song Zhenzong to the front line, Song Zhenzong was not weak at this time, he played with the kings since he was a child, and he called himself "marshal", and was praised by Zhao Kuangyin.
Moreover, under his rule in the Song Dynasty, there was the best internal governance of the Song Dynasty, the rule of Xianping. There is another one, the number of households in Zhao Kuangyi's hands is only about 4 million in history, and it is close to 9 million when it comes to Song Zhenzong, and it has more than doubled in more than 20 years. Song Renzong has been benevolent for thousands of years, and it took more than 40 years to increase the population by 3 million households.
Later, he worshiped the gods, partly because he had a serious neuropathy, not a mental illness, but a nervous problem, wind disease, according to research, it is a serious illness such as cerebral hemorrhage in a cerebral blood test, and the same is true of Song Shenzong, the defeat of the expedition to the west, Song Shenzong was stimulated, and died young. Song Zhenzong wanted not to die, so he had to ask the immortals in ancient times, but another intention of the immortals was also to cover up the alliance under the city. However, Kou Zhun was selling every day, and even the historians thought that Brigadier Kou had forcibly pushed Song Zhenzong to the front line after the most unfortunate sale. What does Song Zhenzong think?
But Song Jiu is different, without him, Zhao Kuangyi also became the emperor in history, and he came back safely in Youzhou, so he didn't have the idea of credit at all. This made Zhao Kuangyi very happy.
Now what Zhao Kuangyi needs most is Zhao Pu, but he deliberately protects Song Jiu, at most when Song Jiu does "excessively", he scolds a few words, also because of this.
As a former minister of Zhao Kuangyi's mansion, he and Zhao Kuangyi were both glorious and humiliated. And they can also know some inside stories.
Many people have taken the throne, each with a ghost, but there are still many old ministers of Zhao Kuangyi's mansion who have a good impression of Song Jiu because of this relationship. Including Yoon Heon.
As for Cao Guangshi, not to mention, Song Jiu's practice in Bashu made him admire, and the two cooperated when they conquered Hedong later, at least they were not enemies.
The two arrived in Xiazhou, and although Li Jiqian escaped, he carried out Song Jiu's orders well.
So he got accurate information and immediately sent it to the capital.
Song Jiu opened it and looked at it, and it said two things, the alliance of the Dijinze clans, and Li Jiqian's marriage to the daughter of the chief of the most famous and wealthy clan in the party. And because the two of them attached great importance to it, the scouts inquired very carefully, at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the six major prefecture clans in the northwest, the Yeli tribe was the only one, and then gradually declined, becoming two, one in Lingzhou, and one in Hengshan. The Hengshan clan is not as many as the one in Lingzhou, but living in the mountainous area, the people are braver.
Li Jiqian's wife is the daughter of this patriarch! (To be continued......)
